Legal Jurisdiction
All our consumer contracts are governed by English law and shall fall under the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England. English is the official language offered for the conclusion of the contract.

Terms & Conditions Of Purchase
"Customer" means any person who is purchasing items from the Supplier.
"Supplier" means Hicks and Hicks
Title
Title in the Goods shall not pass until the price of the purchased items has been paid in full for the Goods.
Supplier's Obligations
The supplier warrants that the product description will correspond with the description logged by the customer at the time of purchase.
Risk Of Loss
All purchases made at supplier, are made pursuant to a shipping contract. By purchasing from supplier, the customer agrees that the title to and risk of loss for such items passes to themselves upon delivery of the items.
Terms & Conditions Of Order Placement, Order Changes, & Returns
Use of this website implies that all the terms and conditions in regards to orders placed, order placement and other issues concerning orders, as outlined here have been accepted and agreed to.
It is understood that an order, once it has been submitted and subsequently processed, cannot be cancelled. Should it under some circumstances, be agreed by the Supplier to cancel an order, cancellation charges relevant to the product would be deducted from the submitted payment before a refund is issued or a charge back made to the card used for payment submission.
Any changes must be made to an order within 24 hours of placing the order; making a change within 24 hours of placing the order does not guarantee that a change can be made. The Supplier will, where possible, endeavour to make changes. All changes to an order, once the order has been processed and where a change remains possible, will carry a £20 change fee per change which is in addition to the difference in any charges associated with that change, be it changes to colours, fabrics, styles, sizes or any other aspect.
As each bespoke item is made to order, the Supplier is unable to resell an order to any Customer other than the Customer placing the order, and as such the Supplier cannot accept returns on the basis of a change of heart on the part of the Customer. Neither can the Supplier accept returns where the Customer requests a change to an existing order and the Supplier cannot fulfil that change. Where there is a dispute between Customer and Supplier over the styling of the order, the record on the Supplier's ordering system is taken as the firm and final order.
Terms & Conditions Of Deadlines And Deliveries
It is understood that turnaround and dispatch of the orders placed at the Supplier may vary from time to time depending on current order volumes, work schedules, material availability or a particular characteristic of the order placed. The Supplier will try its best to comply with the expected delivery date from payment. Dispatch times may vary according to availability, any guarantees or representations made as to delivery times are limited to mainland UK and subject to any delays resulting from postal delays or force majeure (including Acts of God, Acts of War or Acts of Terrorism) for which we will not be responsible. The supplier will not be responsible for such delays resulting from situations within the recipient's control, such as recipient not being available to accept delivery, or incorrect delivery details supplied.
Alterations
Alterations are only included in purchases made by appointment at the London studio and at the 'by appointment' price.
Alterations are not included if there has been a change in size or dimension of the customer after the initial measurements have been taken, this includes any changes in dimensions due to pregnancy or weight loss or gain.
Delivery & Returns
At Hicks and Hicks we make every effort to ensure your purchase gets to you as quickly, safely and cost effectively as possible. Please note, however, that the delivery of your order may be restricted depending on the size, weight and chosen destination of the package. Other factors such as weather and mechanical difficulties can also result in later deliveries. If the delivery address is different to the billing address then we may have to run further checks to ensure your credit card security, this may result in longer delivery times.
Your order will be packed and dispatched, provided:

Orders can be delivered to either business or residential addresses, however all packages will require a signature on receipt of delivery. It is customary for the dispatch companies we use to leave a notification card with their contact information if the delivery address is unattended at the time of delivery, however this may not always be the case. Hicks and Hicks cannot take responsibility if a notification card is not left in any instance.
